"This was a transformational quarter for LunR as we completed the acquisition of the FDN Stream and began receiving silver deliveries that enabled us to generate positive cash flow less than one year since the Company's inception. Stream deliveries are expected to be fully ramped up by the fourth quarter, further strengthening our financial position throughout the year.

Additionally, I am excited to welcome Scott to the Board of Directors of LunR Royalties. We are pleased to be able to draw on his leadership experience at Newmont, one of our largest shareholders, as well as his extensive capital markets and investment banking experience in the metals and mining sector as we continue to pursue growth opportunities to compliment our existing portfolio of high-quality royalty and streaming assets."
